The apparent PPI of a monitor depends upon the screen resolution (that is, the number of pixels) and the size of the screen in use; a monitor in 800×600 mode has a lower PPI than does the same monitor in a 1024×768 or 1280×960 mode. The dot pitch of a computer display determines the absolute limit of possible pixel density.

A series of simple drawings made using Inkscape. With practice and skill, drawings of very high quality can be produced using this open-source software. As these are vector graphics, the images can be scaled to any size, large or small, without loss of quality. Inkscape is a free program used to edit vector graphics.
Inkscape is a vector graphics editor.It is used for both artistic and technical illustrations such as cartoons, clip art, logos, typography, diagrams, and flowcharts.It uses vector graphics to allow for sharp printouts and renderings at unlimited resolution and is not bound to a fixed number of pixels like raster graphics.

If it is labelled as 250 PPI, that is an instruction to the printer to print it at a size of 4 × 4 inches. Changing the PPI to 100 in an image editing program would tell the printer to print it at a size of 10 × 10 inches. However, changing the PPI value would not change the size of the image in pixels which would still be 1,000 × 1,000.

Lines per inch (LPI) is a measurement of printing resolution. A line consists of halftones that is built up by physical ink dots made by the printer device to create different tones. Specifically LPI is a measure of how close together the lines in a halftone grid are. The quality of printer device or screen determines how high the LPI will be.
